Chapter 48

At this moment, Wu Xinghua, with her delicate features and solitary figure, held the letter containing secrets that her mother had given her. Ye Feng understood the bitterness and pain in Wu Xinghua's heart; he had once been forced into a corner by Liu Yong and Liu Meimei, and only he truly knew the taste of such a situation.

But how could he help Wu Xinghua? Ye Feng had carefully considered this.

If he were to use the soul-capturing technique to help Wu Xinghua secretly, he would have to wait for the right opportunity, which would be more passive. More importantly, Ye Feng was certain that the soul-capturing technique would definitely help Wu Xinghua turn the tide. However, if he helped her secretly, her troubles would be resolved, but she would not be grateful to him, thus possibly wasting a great opportunity to gain virtue points.

If he chose to help her openly, there would be some trouble as well. It would expose his abilities to some extent, making Wu Xinghua question and be curious about him.

After deep consideration, Ye Feng finally decided to help her openly and proactively. He wanted to help Wu Xinghua resolve her troubles and gain her gratitude, thus earning virtue points.

Because Ye Feng understood that, despite his ordinary heart, he was no longer the same young man who used to earn a living on construction sites. Being low-key and unknown would avoid many troubles, but he could not remain low-key forever. Since he had embarked on the path of cultivation, his life was already different from that of an ordinary person.

"Sister Xinghua, I will help you," Ye Feng said resolutely.

Wu Xinghua turned her head, somewhat surprised and delighted. In her heart, although Ye Feng's words seemed presumptuous and unrealistic, they were the greatest comfort and encouragement to her.

"Ye Feng, I appreciate your kindness and good intentions, but how can you help me? His influence alone is significant, let alone his collusion with Zhao Chunnu to gang up on me. Actually, I asked you to come out with me today just to vent my frustrations, so I wouldn't suffocate myself. I've made up my mind; I'll hand over Miaoyuan Water Company to him. I have hands, feet, and experience. As long as I'm willing to work hard, I'm not worried about making a new career."

Ye Feng smiled and said, "Sister Xinghua, your attitude is good, but I disagree with your decision. To be honest, I know you don't really believe what I said earlier because you don't know me well. I used to be a construction worker, and now I'm just a small figure who has changed jobs. But I want to tell you one thing: there are always people better than you, and there are always things beyond your imagination. What you think is impossible might not be so difficult for me. When I say I will help you, I mean it."

Wu Xinghua's expression became serious, and she asked, "Ye Feng, if you help me, what methods do you have? Do you know someone with great influence in Mingzhu City who can use their power to make them admit their mistakes?"

Ye Feng shook his head and said, "No, I will help you on my own, not relying on anyone. I can't tell you the specifics, and even if I did, you wouldn't understand. In short, I have a way to make them give up and admit their mistakes. Since things have come to this, treat it as a last resort. You can bring me to meet them tomorrow. Don't worry; I won't use any illegal or extreme methods. You are a good boss, and helping you is also helping myself. I want to work at Miaoyuan Company for a while longer."

Wu Xinghua still had doubts and asked, "Ye Feng, can't you tell me what specific methods you have?"

"Sister Xinghua, at this point, no matter what methods I have or whether they are effective, do you have any other choice?"

Wu Xinghua frowned and said, "But Ye Feng, if you really have a way to help me, you must do it tonight. They only gave me one day to consider. If I don't respond by midnight tonight, they will have their lawyers execute the procedures to reorganize Miaoyuan Company tomorrow."

Ye Feng thought for a moment and said straightforwardly, "Alright, either you bring me to find them now, or you have them come here."

Wu Xinghua took a sip of wine and suddenly laughed. After a while, she said, "Alright, Ye Feng, whether you can help me or not, since things have come to this, why should I wallow in self-pity and give them what they want? Why not call them over and give them a good scolding? Ha, just thinking about it makes me feel good. Ye Feng, go to the bar and order two more cases of beer. I'll call them right now."

Ye Feng smiled bitterly in his heart. In essence, Wu Xinghua still didn't believe him, but he couldn't blame her since she didn't know what he was capable of.

Ye Feng got up, giving Wu Xinghua the space and time to make the call, and went to the bar.

When he reached the bar, it was his first time in a bar, and he didn't know how to order drinks or if it was the same as in a restaurant where he could just ask a waiter to bring them over.

Before he could ask the waiter, someone suddenly came over, stammering, "B......B......Big Brother, h......how did you end up here?"

Ye Feng turned his head and saw that it was none other than the gang leader Le Ge from the seaside square whom he had severely disciplined the night before.

At this moment, Le Ge looked nervous. He had just disbanded his gang and given them substantial compensation. On the other hand, he had informed Wang Da that he had encountered a tough opponent and decided to lay low for a while.

Although Wang Da was unhappy, Le Ge was determined and would rather make Wang Da unhappy than provoke Ye Feng again.

But he never expected that Ye Feng would personally come to his bar before the day was over.

"Why are you here? Are you looking for trouble again?" Ye Feng asked, as Wu Xinghua might need some time to make the call, so he decided to chat with this gangster named Le Ge for a while.

"Big Brother, I... I am actually the owner of this bar. Big Brother, I really listened to you. I disbanded all my subordinates today and will do business here honestly. I won't do those despicable things anymore. Big Brother, I am truly determined to reform, please believe me."

Ye Feng laughed when he heard this. This guy had changed quickly, but Ye Feng didn't care about that and didn't plan to have any further interaction with him.

"Alright, if you've changed, that's good. I'm here to drink with a friend tonight. You don't need to bother me. Just do your job. Also, I need two cases of beer. Have someone deliver them to booth 11."

"Sure, Big Brother, please go back and wait. I'll arrange it right away. All your expenses tonight will be on the house. Whenever you come, I will welcome you, and all your expenses will be free."

Ye Feng smiled and said, "No need for that. Do you think I'm like you?"

After saying this, Ye Feng turned and went back to the booth.

Le Ge, however, was drenched in cold sweat. The shock Ye Feng had given him the night before still lingered in his mind, and he probably wouldn't forget it for the rest of his life. Although Ye Feng didn't insist on a free meal, Le Ge didn't dare to ask for payment. After some consideration, he decided to offer a 50% discount for Ye Feng's expenses tonight and give him a gold card for a 50% discount on future visits.

Le Ge called over a waiter, whispered a few words, and instructed the waiter to bring the best and most genuine beer to Ye Feng immediately. He also told the waiter to check every half hour if Ye Feng needed more beer and to refill it automatically.

Furthermore, Le Ge decided to call Wu Zi, Liu Zi, and Xiao Qi to toast to Ye Feng, making sure to show the right attitude.

On one side, Le Ge was nervous, while on the other side, Wu Xinghua let out a long breath. She didn't fully believe Ye Feng's earlier statement, but his words had given her inspiration, helping her regain her confidence and composure. Since some things were already beyond her control, it was better to let go gracefully. In a way, this situation might not be entirely bad. At least it would help her father and family see the true face of Hao Jian, and their marriage could finally be over.

When Ye Feng returned to the booth, the waiter soon brought the beer, the best German wheat beer.

Wu Xinghua didn't mind the change in drinks and smiled, "Ye Feng, I've already told them to come to the bar. They are in Mingzhu City and should be here in less than an hour. They might think I've given in, but when they come, they'll only get a good scolding from me. Ha, just thinking about it makes me feel good. Ye Feng, you just wait and watch the show. When I start scolding, I can go on for a thousand sentences without repeating myself."
